Would you like to connect your classroom’s Virtual Student to your Zoom meeting without manually typing in your meeting ID on the Poly panel? Just follow these simple steps!
- Start the meeting from your laptop as you normally do.
- Click “Participants.”
- Click “Invite.”
- Click the “Zoom Rooms” tab.
- Locate your VS unit. (You can do this quickly by typing in the building name and/or room number in the search field.)
- Click “Invite.”
- Accept the call from the Poly panel, and the VS unit will now be in your meeting! You will see your remote students on the VS screen, and they will see the classroom from their devices.
While the above method requires one touch to accept the meeting invitation, there is another method that does not require you to touch the Poly panel at all: Schedule Meetings in Zoom Rooms with Outlook. With this method, you set up everything in advance, and when your class period starts, the VS automatically connects to the meeting with no additional setup from you.
